Challenge: Favorite Photos of Kids

Here is a scan of a photo I took of my two sons nine years ago. The only copy I can find is 2" x 1.5", wish I could find the original. To see the effect best you need to open in a new window.

Here is another photo of the boys taken yesterday, wow that nine years went quick! Open in a new window for the suprise!

Cameron,

Very nice set of photos! I still like this one the best. I also like to take outside shots. Occassionally I will use a fill flash to knock out shadows on the face. This is especially helplful when the sun is bright.

Regards,
Tom

That is a very cute photo! You can see how intent and serious she
is about making her explanation clear.

Mark,

At least she is being subtle about it! Great shot.

Nope, and if you check the whole image, she'll tell you for sure.

Nice shots, Kevin. What is the background of the little girl? Looks like a frozen lake. I also like to look of determination on the runner's face. As a one-time competitive distance runner, I can relate!

That's a great shot, Pete! I love to see the smile on my little girl's face. You just know that it comes straight from their hearts.

What a good idea for a challenge post!! Here is a little girl
called Laura, not a great photograph technically, but the look of
joy as she holds on to her father's hand and gets pulled around is
really special to me. She's swimming in Brown lake, on Stradbroke
island, coloured brown due to tannins in the water.

Nice to be back,
DU Pete

That's a great shot, Greg! Lauren loves to pull all of her stuffed animals into her crib. I sometimes marvel at the determination she has...not to mention the reach!

I love it. Since you didn't specify human kids this is one of my favorites of my youngest, Judi. Jan

Thanks, Tom. I really do enjoy taking their pictures. Here is another one of my nephew watching TV.

Kevin Roczey · May 22, 2001

Thanks...

It was my son in the 50 yard dash at the local schools Jr. Olympics.

I was in the stands with a D1 and a 80-400VR. I was at 400mm F8 and 1/750 shutter. I had to wait 4 hours for that shot! But it was worth it.

Hi Tom,

The background is actually a parking lot

We were visiting Crater Lake. I couldn't resist adding these other photos.

Why do all your photos look "solorized" They don't look like photographs, more like drawings.

That's the baby picture he puts in his high school yearbook, in the photo-collage his kids put together for him for his 50th birthday, etc, etc...

Sorry for so many, but they go together...

This is my youngest daughter. I told her to make a mad face and
here are the results. They're shot with my Sony S70 on fully auto
(can you tell? haha). Then I 'fixed' them up in PS6 as best I could.

Comments welcome!

First mad attempt

Trying not to laugh!

Alright that's enough!

And just to prove that she's actually a sweetie...

Hi All's;

This picture was taken a while back of my little nephew when he enjoyed a day out at the restaurant for dim sum. He was about 9 to 10 months old at the time. Taken with S10.
